Xena: Warrior Princess1995

Xena:
[Brunnhilda tells Gabrielle the story of Xena; a flashback of a younger Xena riding slowly through the woods is shown. Odin, the King of the Norse Gods, is heard moaning. Xena rides over to him] Whoa... [She stops her horse to look at Odin. He is crucified on a tree. A raven is with him] Hey, there. Who did you mess with?

Beowulf:
No one is capable of doing this to me without my consent.

Xena:
What kind of an idiot has himself crucified?

Beowulf:
I don't wish to take part in the struggle of life anymore.

Xena:
Why would you wanna do that?

Beowulf:
I am Odin, king of the Norse Gods. It is my duty to bring peace to the Norse country. Yet as I sit in Valhalla, and watch the bitter struggle called life on this Earth, I ask, "Are we doomed to live in a constant state of endless conflict"?

Xena:
Damn straight. That's what makes life so worth living! You know, every day I wake up and I feel pumped by the knowledge that there is always someone around the next corner - someone for me to challenge, to fight, and to conquer.

Beowulf:
Someday... someone may conquer you.

Xena:
Precisely... which is why I don't have time to waste chatting with a God who doesn't know what to do with his immortality.

Beowulf:
[as Xena starts to leave with her horse] Wait... who are you?

Xena:
The name's Xena. [pause] You know, you can't escape the struggle, Odin. Ya gotta embrace it!

Odin:
[voice-over] Xena brought Odin out of his despair by sharing with him her lust for life. He, in turn, made her a Valkyrie.
